Integration with Outlook calendar

Hey there @Hayenb - great question!

So, yes - this is how Calendly is designed to work. However, after setting up your Outlook Calendar you’ll want to make sure of a few things.

1. Head to your Calendar Connection page and select “edit” next to “Check for conflicts” 
2. Make sure that you have selected the proper sub calendars so Calendly is reading “busy” events on those sub calendars
3. Likewise, make sure you have marked all conflicting events in your Outlook Calendar as “busy” so Calendly knows to mark them as conflicts
4. You can also choose to make other statuses such as “OOO” and “working elsewhere” read as “busy” under the “check for conflicts” settings
5. You can read more about setting all of this up https://help.calendly.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000586634-Getting-started-with-Office-365-or-Outlook-com

As long as you have properly set up your calendar connections, then yes! Those times will be auto-removed from your public booking page and nobody will be able to book them.

I hope this helps!
